Teddies or Fairies? AYLI Inspiration

Hello everyone. I have a card to inspire you today...I hope

Its time for another challenge at As You Like It and it's a real conundrum!!

Fairies or Teddies?

Now I've never been a fairy kind of girl, although they used to appear from time to time to clean the boys' bedrooms when they were younger!! For me it has to be teddies and in particular the lovely James from Lili of the valley. He is just adorable isn't he?!! This particular image is a digital "James Christmas Stocking"stamp that I coloured with my Promarkers.

I also used the very last bits of my Winter Wishes taster pack and snazzed him up with some red ribbon to compliment his hat and stocking.

I can't tell you how good it's been to actually snatch a bit of crafting time to myself. I treated myself to a Gemini die cutting machine and actually took it out of the box and used it for the first time to cut the little tag. Anyway thank you so much for your visit, I really do hope to return the compliment some time soon xx

Ah yes! I know about those fairies! LOL!! I absolutely LOVE this sweet image Sarah and you've done a brilliant job bringing it to life with your special details like the textures papers, the sweet ribbon and tag and of course your coloring too!! Brilliantly done! Hugs & Smiles - *Vicki* My Blog: Stamp Smiles

Totally adorable card Sarah! Fabulous colouring. Love the little tag with it's ribbon and button. I'm with you, teddies are my first love although I do like fairies too.My eBosser has started making a groaning noise sometimes (not unlike my husband when I'm crafting :D). I really hope it's not on it's last legs. Tell me if you'd recommend the Gemini when you've had plenty of time to play with it please :). Debra x

This card has such a gorgeous cosy feel to it with the lovely plaid paper and pretty ribbon detail...and I adore James bear :-)Ooooh, I'm excited to hear how you get on with the Gemini...although I might end up very tempted - lol!Big hugs, Kat xx

Hi Sarah, James is so cute and your colouring is spot on as always, I have so far resisted buying any of the LOTV digi images but I'm sure it will soon break as they are far too cute not to own... have a great week... Megan

James is indeed, most adorable, and even more so, with your super coloring efforts. I prefer Teddies to most fairy images too (well, for me to color!) Love this design layout with the pretty background, and Teddy James looks all set for Christmas! Love these sweet images! TFS & Hugs

Just too cute, Sarah. Like you, fairies have never really been my thing but I find myself being drawn to these delicate creature. Its the magic of Christmas, I guess. But teddies still reign supreme.... and this card shows you why! Great job, friend.x Asha
